"You know, I was thinking the other day about those little plays we used to put on when we were little for the whole family. You know, we would color invitations, and everybody got all dressed up. We made snacks and lemonade. And you always insisted on singing and dancing. And you were...Really terrible at both. And you turned into this...beautiful swan. I was so proud of you. I went to the beach house to tell you that...I’m pregnant. And I want you to be the godmother, because it’s been everything having you near me this past year. They say you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone. And I guess I didn’t know how much I missed you till you were in my life every day. How much I needed you. Come home soon, Quinny. And if you see mom, you tell her to send you right back here to me...Because we have invitations to make and stories to write. Just me and my beautiful swan of a sister."

"You know, some people are clearly just angels sent down to earth to take care of the rest of us. I'm just lucky that one of those angels is my sister. Thank you."
